docs(roadmap): add Phase 4J OTel GenAI evaluation-span mapping - #2
Conversation
Competitive/gap scan (2026-09-15): OTel GenAI conventions v1.38.0 added gen_ai.evaluation.result to attach eval scores to spans; Langfuse/Phoenix/ Datadog already consume it. Our TraceReference has no documented mapping to it (4D.2 already flagged this gap). Adds Phase 4J with acceptance criteria: field-mapping doc + one fixture/test round-trip.

OpenTelemetry now recommends the Logs API for new events. Log records carry top-level
trace_idandspan_idfields. The current criterion tests only a span export, so it can miss the supported log-based representation ofgen_ai.evaluation.result. Add a log-export fixture, or explicitly scope this item to span events and track log-based event support separately.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

- Around line 1436-1437: Update the roadmap statement around the
`gen_ai.evaluation.result` event to either add vendor citations with versions
that explicitly document support and event mapping for Langfuse, Arize Phoenix,
and Datadog LLM Observability, or remove the claim that these platforms consume
this event; do not rely on generic OTLP ingestion evidence.
- Around line 1458-1460: Update the GenAI conventions note in the roadmap to
require an immutable, reproducible reference—such as an exact repository commit,
dated snapshot, or tested schema reference—instead of only a convention version.
Preserve the existing warning about unstable/development status and align the
guidance with the versioned approach used for eval-report/v1.
- Line 29: Update the “Physical order is” list in the roadmap to include the
omitted Phase 4I and Phase 4J table-of-contents entries in their actual physical
order, while preserving the existing non-numeric ordering explanation.
- Around line 1452-1457: Update the planned gen_ai.evaluation.result
field-mapping documentation and adapter tests to define behavior when
correlating span trace_id/span_id values are unavailable but gen_ai.response.id
is present. Explicitly choose and verify whether the adapter resolves the
response ID, drops the record, or rejects the input.

Keep the physical-order list complete.
The note says “Physical order is,” but its list omits the table-of-contents entries for Phases 4I and 4J. The note explains non-numeric ordering; it does not make the list non-exhaustive. Add the omitted phases in their physical order, or state explicitly that the list is non-exhaustive.

💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
Langfuse, Arize Phoenix, and Datadog LLM Observability all support OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP) for ingesting GenAI telemetry data, though their implementation details and configuration requirements vary. Langfuse Langfuse operates as an OpenTelemetry backend, accepting OTLP traces at its public endpoint. It supports OTLP over HTTP using both HTTP/JSON and HTTP/protobuf formats; gRPC is not supported [1][2]. The OpenTelemetry endpoint was introduced in version v3.22.0 [1]. Configuration requires setting the OTLP exporter endpoint to the Langfuse URL (e.g., /api/public/otel) and providing authentication via a Basic Auth header containing project keys [2]. Arize Phoenix Phoenix supports OTLP ingestion for both gRPC and HTTP/JSON transports [3]. The Phoenix server listens for OTLP/gRPC on port 4317 and OTLP/HTTP on port 6006 (its UI port) [3][4]. The SDKs (arize-phoenix-otel) are versioned independently of the Phoenix server, meaning there is no strict version coupling for compatibility [5][6]. Users can configure standard OpenTelemetry SDKs directly to point to Phoenix, or use the provided Phoenix wrappers that automatically configure the OTLP exporter and handle authentication headers when an API key is provided [3][7][6]. Datadog LLM Observability Datadog natively supports OpenTelemetry GenAI Semantic Conventions (v1.37+) [8][9]. Telemetry can be sent to Datadog via the Datadog Agent (using OTLP ingest) or directly to Datadog's OTLP intake endpoint [9][10]. The Datadog Agent supports OTLP traces and metrics ingestion via gRPC or HTTP (since versions 6.32.0/7.32.0 for traces/metrics, and 6.48.0/7.48.0 for logs) [10]. Configuration involves setting the OTLP exporter protocol (http/protobuf) and headers (including API key) [8]. Datadog maps these OTel-compliant spans automatically, provided they follow the GenAI Semantic Conventions or OpenInference conventions [8][9]. In general, these platforms emphasize the use of standardized GenAI semantic conventions (such as gen_ai.* attributes or OpenInference) to ensure compatibility with diverse OTel-instrumented applications [2][7][8][9].

Add versioned citations for event support or remove the ingestion claim. The inspected vendor sources establish generic OTLP trace ingestion, but they do not establish support for the specific gen_ai.evaluation.result event. The linked integration page also provides no vendor-specific version or event mapping. Without that evidence, the roadmap presents an unsupported integration capability as fact.

Define the correlation fallback for records without span context. The mapping criterion covers trace_id and span_id, but gen_ai.evaluation.result also supports gen_ai.response.id when span identification is unavailable. Without an explicit policy, the planned adapter's behavior for this supported input is undefined. Document and test whether the adapter resolves gen_ai.response.id, drops the record, or rejects the input.

Specify an immutable GenAI convention reference.
The canonical open-telemetry/semantic-conventions-genai repository has no release entries, and its README still lists the schema URL as TODO. Therefore, “pin a convention version” does not identify a reproducible convention set. Require an exact repository commit, dated snapshot, or tested schema reference.

Competitive/gap scan (2026-09-15)
OpenTelemetry's GenAI semantic conventions SIG shipped
gen_ai.evaluation.resultin the v1.38.0 cut (Oct 2025) specifically to attach eval scores/labels/explanations to the span that produced the underlying model/tool call. Langfuse, Arize Phoenix, and Datadog LLM Observability already consume it over OTLP.This repo's
TraceReference(traceId/spanId/traceUrl/spanUrl) is a generic evidence link with no documented mapping to that event — 4D.2 already flagged this exact gap (Audit 2026-09-14: "OpenTelemetry-specific guidance is still missing"). Adds Phase 4J with one scoped item (4J.1): a field-mapping doc + one fixture/test proving the round-trip, matching the existing 4B.3 importer acceptance bar.Source: https://john-hodge.com/blog/opentelemetry-genai-semantic-conventions
